    The first album is more of a package of10 singles than a themed display. Mostpeople know "You Are The Woman" withits extremely light approach, but thecraftsmanship and texture of "Mexico",and the bitter "Cinderella" show thatthere was more than meet...s the ear. Alsonoteworthy are the reworking of the oldManassas tune "It Doesn't Matter" andthe beautiful "Dolphin's Lullaby". Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Firefall

  • All Music Guide

    Given Firefall's pedigree of former Spirit and Flying Burrito Brothers members, it may seem that the group would have been a little more adventurous than the band that gave us the soft rock classic "You Are the Woman." Thing is, they were -- the song was just so successful, it's overshadowed the fact that their 1976's eponymous debut was a varied, satisfying record. Yes, most of it was within the province of mellow Californian soft rock, but they do display their country-rock roots, along with some searching musicality throughout the record. And while a couple of the songs coast by on sound, they could also craft a good tune, with the singles "Livin' Ain't Livin'" and "Cinderella" standing proudly alongside "You Are the Woman." It's a fine, understated country-rock debut that remains one of the more underrated items of its kind -- it holds its own next to Poco, Pure Prairie League, and the Eagles.

Biography

Firefall

The mellow, easy country-rock sounds of Firefall, coupled with the group's penchant for pop melodies and high-pitched harmonies, produced a series of successful LPs in the late '70s and a series of chart singles, including the Top Ten hit "You Are the Woman." The group was formed by former Flying Burrito Brother Rick Roberts, who handled vocals, guitar, and most of the ... Read more
